Thank you everyone for your insight, comments, and help with the process! I'm started with Fedora, and after some brief confusion between Gnome and Plasma, I'm off! :D

Have you met people? They're the worst.

[-] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 32 points 11 months ago

Where did the Linux socks thing come from? I see it around and am curious about the lore.

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 29 points 11 months ago

Lots of non-normative folk like Linux. Far as I know there was just a spree of posts showing btop and thigh highs and it went from there

[-] seaQueue@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

Not enough plaid skirt IMO

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 11 months ago

Reppin argyle socks instead of the classic striped, hell yeah.

Happy for you! Nice wallpaper btw!

[-] DogWater@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I thought the toe and heel pads were holes at first.

[-] Xistinas@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Same. Thought, "Finally, one of my people."

Let me know if you figure out how to get UO working on Wine. I have to use the online client.

[-] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Ultima Outlands is the way to go! Here's how to get it going: https://wiki.uooutlands.com/Install_UO_on_Linux

[-] Nibodhika@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Came here for the wallpaper, saved this reply for the link. I had considered running my own server a while back to be able to play again.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

There's a blast from the past; it has to be 30 years since I played UO.

[-] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

It's free to play with that link! Outlands is like you remember, plus end game

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 4 points 11 months ago

Sick wallpaper and good distro taste.

[-] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Is this a fresh install and sitting at 10gb ram? Seems like a lot.

[-] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

I had Discord, and AnvilToolkit running, along with update on a separate terminal :D

That rams not gonna use itself.

[-] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

My truenas server agrees.

[-] meekah@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

2.4k packages as well, or is that normal on fedora?

[-] Lawnman23@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

FC42 is on kernel 6.14.11 for stable, this rig is still on .0 for some reason.

Something is not right.

[-] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Ultima Online! I stared at that art for days!

[-] Zugyuk@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

It's still one of my favorites!

[-] torgeir@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Even the boxes are smiling!

[-] XXIC3CXSTL3Z@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
